Hi! Thank you for your interest in Charla Blue Photography. I'm excited you found me and hope I get a chance to play a small part in telling your families story.

Family Photo Session FAQ's

Here are a few Frequently Asked Questions & Answers...

What is your session fee?
$350 ($175 or 50% due upon booking, balance due by or on session date). Sessions include maternity, newborn, family, seniors, and lifestyle. (There is a $25 charge for each additional person over five).

If you are expecting and book both your maternity & newborn sessions with me, I do offer both sessions for $600 (which would be a $100 discount off your newborn session).

What does the session fee include?
Photographer’s time, talent, and travel (within 30 miles of 90803)! You will also receive access to all high resolution images in your online gallery & a downloadable link will be sent to your email with full print release.

How many images will I receive?
There is no magic number. I shoot the entire time and only deliver the best images (A session will typically deliver 100 edited images). If there's more, you get more!

How long does it take to get my images back?
You’ll receive a preview of your images on my blog within one week of your session or event. The rest of the images will be available to you within four weeks of your session/event date (online gallery).

How do I view my images?
Your images will be hosted in a online gallery. You will receive an email from me with a link to your album. You’ll be able to view, share, download, and order professional prints and products from this website.

May I order prints from you?
Most definitely! Because you receive a printing release with your session, I price my prints competitively. You are welcome to print where you'd like but I can't guarantee the quality of consumer printers. I want you to have beautiful quality prints to display in your home, so I encourage you to order professional prints from your online gallery. Various sizes, products, and packages available in album gallery; as well as custom books & albums.

Do you have any recommendations where to order quality products for my images?
Absolutely! I'm excited to partnering with Pinhole Press to offer beautiful archival products to my clients. Pinhole Press is your online boutique for personalized, inspirational gifts. Their photo products are designed to inspire the gift giver, spread joy to the recipient and create an unforgettable moment. From photo books and holiday cards to calendars and day planners, they make simple, high-quality, functional products—you make them special with your photos.

How do you accept payment?

What should we wear?

I get this question all of the time, so I've included some images to help you coordinate your families wardrobe. I believe the days of wearing all white or black shirts is gone (white washes you out!). Find clothing that coordinates but not totally matching. Don't be afraid of bright colors and patterns either. Ultimately your wardrobe should reflect each persons style. And be sure to accessorize the females in your family. You can also check out this Pinterest board of What To Wear.

Location Location Location

So here's my two cents on location....it doesn't matter. What? That's right. Some of my favorite places to shoot are in allies and parking lots and your home. What matters most to me is good lighting and that we capture YOU authentically. You are the focus of your images, not the location. Having said that, I am willing to go wherever you would like, I just don't think you should stress over the 'perfect' location. In addition, I tend to walk and explore the area...so that you'll have a diversified backgrounds.
